The Act to tighten the regulation of cannabispassed on November 1st, 2019. That Act amends the Cannabis Regulation Act. From now on, it is now forbidden to smoke or vape cannabis in any public place, whether indoor or outdoor. As of January 1st, 2020, the minimum legal age to possess or purchase cannabis and to be admitted to the premises of the Société québécoise du cannabis, among other things, will be raised to 21 years of age.

The bill to regulate cannabis use puts the health and safety of the population first. The proposed measures aim to curb the risks and harmful effects of cannabis use and keep the substance from being trivialized, especially among teenagers and young adults.
